P.S. Words on who is to blame for the Failed Status Quo of Public Education
P.S. Words on who is to blame for the Failed Status Quo of Public Education
Bonnie Brusky: The Video of the Wisconsin Senate Hostile Takeover Hearing @ MPS Central Office is listed with a ton of the other public education related videos, so you may need to scroll down a little http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0b69IpvHDw
also let the video completely download first before watching so it will play smoothly, good luck, Bonnie! Thanks Leon
P.S. As you know, I am really disturbed by the remarks from the panel that all the Takeover Opposition is interested in is the status quo. The fact that these legislators would even attempt to illegitimately characterize and even Bad Brand the original workings of 1975 to mid 1980s MPS as Failed Status Quo means that our legislator don't understand public education and need to stay out of the Politics of Public Education. Actually, it is the subsequent failed reforms from the MMAC and GMC that wrecked an excellent and well recognized public education delivery system in this city. The business community lobbied the legislators hard for changes that were destructive to public education in this city. These spurious legislative changes along with the unfortunate policies and practices brought about through a bought and paid for school board, with outside the state dollars, that delivered more failed reform initiatives to the children of our school district. The business community has lobbied with the state legislature to lower the standards for city superintendents, alone among state school districts, so that a series of unlicensed and unqualified superintendents could be put into office to implement destructive reforms programs to children and parents. Even many so called progressives have greased the skids for the malignant school reform policies that are putting children on the street to be educated by the street gangs of this city. These failed reform initiatives are the structural foundation with what we have been left to contend. We must not only stop more of these destructive policies from being foisted on city children but must eradicate and purge the administrative structure that continues to stand by the status quo of failed reform initiatives. Only then can we address these failed policies and procedures of a failed urban school district that have been foisted on the children of this city, a city government that has failed to produce the jobs necessary to motivate families to stay in the city and receive the education that they deserve and expect. We must demand that the governor, the state superintendent and the mayor stop their insidious programming of Pick Your Enemy political strategy, or Blame Gaming for their own failures and covetously looking at the district's tax dollars as belonging to their budget. As long as the business community's leadership organizations are allowed to continue their brand of the Politics of Public Perception with the New-Speak daily newspaper with the intent of confusing the real issues and confusing who is really at fault, Their Failures, public education as well as city government will continue to hemmorage red ink and need to play the Blame Game for their own failures.
Let me not digress any further. To your point of the senate hearing video location, please let me know how the video works for you and if you will need anything else. May I ask how you are going to use the contents of the Senate Hearing? More later, thanks
